About Ulew AtitlanUlew Atitlan teaches ancient building techniques combined with the latest earth-bag construction methods so that people the world over may create inexpensive, sustainable and beautifully natural living spaces.

Ulew Atitlan’s roots are in SuperAdobe, and we incorporate other earth-friendly building techniques, such as rock, bamboo, and hybrids, and are firmly based in permaculture. The term “bio-construction” encompasses the diverse range of methods included in our more affordable, practical, and sustainable approach.

Gateway 1: Building the First of Five Pyramids of TOI

Ulew Atitlan has sprung into being to promote bio-construction and provide educational outreach about sustainable building methods. Among our projects is a series of five pyramids being built using bio-construction and permaculture at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. We are about spreading sustainable living techniques.

Ulew Atitlan is working in partnership with local organizations to expand the use of construction and gardening techniques that promote guardianship of the natural elements and provide employable skills to local residents.
